Aadhaar card is essential for accessing various services and verifying important documents. To use online Aadhaar services, it’s vital to link your mobile number with UIDAI. This mobile number will receive a one-time password (OTP) for verification. It’s also necessary to have your mobile number linked with your Aadhaar for using the mAadhaar app.
If your old mobile number is inactive or you need to update your new mobile number in your Aadhaar card, you can easily do so. However, note that the option to update the mobile number in Aadhaar online is no longer available, as UIDAI has discontinued it. Now, you can only change your mobile number in Aadhaar offline.
